I read an article this morning. It said a lot of people that missed out on the latest up move were compensating by piling into call options….That ought to add some vertical diversity to this ride….
Look forward
…to doing a little shopping today🙂

Similar waves in Gold…except b made a new Hi, which is v bullish. and so far c is smaller than a, even more bullish..if it holds.
Morning maddog
Those are some big waves.
I thought the shares looked sort of tentative along with silver yesterday, now it makes sense.
Hopefully it’s short and brutal, right now it’s just the brutal part. Then again, back in 2011 they took silver down $6 overnight when it got near $50.
We’ll have to see if there are any shorts looking for cover today.

Little bit sketchy tonight
Some selling into the LBMA open.
Wondering if maddog’s Reuters article has some teeth and the US and China fixed London’s supply problems.
Dollar is rallying tonight and crypto is getting smacked as well.
Then there’s India. Where’s their supply going to come from?

What the deep crime state was doing Doge was finding.
Systematically robbing us.
Giving a illegal grandma from Sudan or wherever maximum SS. A whistle blower exposes how they were instructed to sign up migrants for life time disability helping them make up a reason. That if the state refuses to comply they would come in through groups like Catholic so called charity groups to do it for them and filling their bank accounts while their at it. Get them out of your state.

Now just using cash when you can or buying prepaid cards you can buy if you need it. It’s about confiscation. Transfer it in stocks too especially if you can get a foreign account and of course gold and silver.
86 million Vietnamese bank accounts closed. Or online bank account not connected to that country.
This video claims to give some ideas on what you can do to protect yourself.
This will help the shorts ….Not
India’s Largest Metals Refinery Just Ran Out Of Silver For The First Time In History
Cap’n, 9.44, they already have in Oz.
All the states have digital ID drivers’ licences. And now they are being combined into a national database.
It’s like our (totally legal) immigration. 739,000 in 2022/23, 667,000 in 2023/24, 24/25 figures expected December but anticipated around 700,000. i.e about 2.5% to 3% p.a.
And farmland has decreased by 5% since 2019.
Nobody voted for any of this. We didn’t even know it was happening. Creep, indeed.
Looks like we have some people who are seriously short and are desperate to stop this move……
Why else smash the PM’s in a dead zone……
ipso facto
Re Holland
Good catch, at some point people will work out that a good chunk of the monstrous debts being run up, are being used to pay for the gimmiegrants.
History will shake it’s head dumb struck, at our lunacy.
Amazing day for gold
I had us up $125 at one point.
Silver strong too after Friday’s beatdown.
Felt like the shares sort of lagged though, not all, but some.
This is mind blowing

In the Netherlands they’ve made the data public: each Somali immigrant has been found to cost the public about $1.2 million over their lifetime, while each North American and Japanese immigrant generated a net contribution of roughly $500,000.
Why would Powell worry about the gold price?
Bernanke told us years ago they only held gold as part of “tradition.” 🙂

I don’t think the populations will accept the program. Hope I’m right, a lot of people are kinda dumb!
I guess in China they’re already doing a lot of behavior altering electronic controlling of people.

The $6+ Trillion QE Signal: Fed Chair Powell Lit the Fuse for the Greatest Mining Explosion Since the 1970s
The metals have been sniffing this out for months, which explains their relentless march higher. But the real fireworks are just beginning.
Fed Chair Powell dropped the most bullish signal for precious metals in years, and many mainstream investors completely missed it. Powell announced that the Fed will stop shrinking its balance sheet “in the coming months” as they’re seeing tightening in money markets.
Translation: Quantitative Tightening (QT) is ending, and Quantitative Easing (QE) is likely soon to be coming back.
This isn’t just another policy adjustment; this is rocket fuel for metals, and the mining sector is about to experience an explosion that will make the 1970s and early 2000s look like warm-up acts.
Powell’s Hidden Message: The QT Death Knell
While markets focused on Powell’s non-committal stance on interest rates, the real bombshell was buried in his comments about the Fed’s balance sheet.
Speaking to the National Association for Business Economics, Powell revealed that the Fed is “closely monitoring a wide range of indicators” and may approach the point where they stop balance sheet runoff “in coming months.”
The key phrase that should have every metals investor’s attention: “some signs have begun to emerge that liquidity conditions are gradually tightening.” This is Fed-speak for “we’re running out of room to continue QT without breaking something.”
When the Fed starts worrying about liquidity conditions, the next step is usually the same; open the monetary floodgates.
Since mid-2022, the Fed has reduced its balance sheet by $2.2 trillion, from a peak of nearly $9 trillion down to just over $6 trillion. But Powell made it clear they have no intention of returning to the pre-COVID balance sheet size of $4 trillion.
The other incredibly interesting takeaway was, when asked about the rise in gold and what that means, not only did Powell refuse to answer the question, he wouldn’t even say the word “gold.”
He looks nervous, twitchy, and not in a good place. Watch it here and decide for yourself.
Why QE Is Inevitable And Likely Coming Sooner Than Later
The Fed’s decision to end QT isn’t happening in a vacuum. It’s happening against a backdrop of mounting fiscal pressures, slowing economic growth, and a labor market that Powell himself admits is showing “downside risks.”
